As for what the protectors said, Zhuangzi believed that it was true, and all the people in Qiyuan were Taoists. But he was still not at ease and decided to go to the paint garden in person. Hearing is false, seeing is believing, and he is not at ease if he doesn't see it in person.

Since the sermon, he has barely even left the courtyard door, and spends his days cross-legged on the seller's bed preaching. He didn't know how much had changed from outside.

The next day, Zhuangzi got up early, changed his outfit, disguised himself, and took the black-clothed senior brother, two gray-clothed protectors, begging half, and begging for a while, and decided to spend two days walking through the entire lacquer garden.

The three of them first went to the bazaar to see what was going on in the bazaar.

At the market, although it is not yet dawn, the vendors have already come to set up their stalls. Those who sell breakfast have already made a fire and cooked the first pot early. The number of people who came from the countryside to catch the morning market also increased. But! The shops on both sides of the street have not yet opened, only restaurants and liquor stores have opened.

"Ahh This business! Boss! You've all sent it! ”

A customer who ate breakfast said to the owner of the breakfast stall: "I heard that since Zhuangzi's preaching, the whole lacquer garden has changed, and business in all walks of life is good. ”

"Yes! Oh, yes! Thanks to Zhuangzi! This year's business is more than double that of previous years! All good! Good! The owner of the morning stall replied while he was busy.

A customer next to him replied while eating breakfast: "I heard that those people from the countryside, as if they were celebrating the New Year, came to the market and bought everything!" Yes! It's rare! Usual! This usually, where are the people who rush to the early gathering so many this year! In previous years, when the farming was busy, there would be no one in the market for a while, and there would be no one in the middle of the morning! ”

The owner of the early stall said, "Yes! Oh, yes! Where like this year, there are people at the market all day long! ”

"Have you heard of that? This year! The ready-to-wear shop is bigger! When the countrymen came, they all ran to the ready-to-wear shops, either to buy new clothes or to have the tailors make new clothes. It's rare! Where did they all pick up the money? ”

"Hahaha! Where did you pick up the money? Not yet? Everyone believes, who still saves so much money? Money is something outside the body, Zhuangzi said. We want to live happily! This is also what Zhuangzi said. And also! Life is just a life process, so what do you do ...... persistently"

"Yes! Oh, yes! Everyone believes, and their ideas have changed......"

Wearing a hat with the brim pressed low so that it was impossible to see his face, Zhuangzi walked slowly through the bazaar, watching the situation in the bazaar. Seriously, it was the first time he had come to the market so leisurely.

When he walked to the breakfast stall and heard several people talking, he stopped. After listening for a while, I was afraid of being suspected, and walked away slowly.

After listening to the conversation of those people, Zhuangzi was very satisfied.

The black-clothed brother and the two gray-clothed mage protectors, beggar and beggar, also took action and wandered the streets.

Zhuangzi told them to look and listen everywhere to see if it was as the other protectors said. And also! See what's wrong. Especially! Qiyuan people's understanding of Taoism. If there is a mistake, it must be corrected and explained clearly.

After a turn, the group returned for breakfast. The seller made them a hearty breakfast, and baked enough pancakes for everyone to eat for the day.

After breakfast, the group came out of the house and went in the direction of Xigukou in a somewhat sneaky way. They plan to go to Nishigukou today and come back from Nishigukou in the afternoon. Tomorrow, we will set off from home and go to Higashiguchi, which will also be a day.

Along the way, there were many people who came to catch the market. There was a man who walked alone, and there was a group of threes or fives. Thereinto! There are also quite a few women and children.

Before that, women and children in the countryside rarely went to the streets to catch the market. Only during the New Year's holidays do women and children have a chance.

"Oops! You! I'm talking about old plums! What are you doing with your daughter-in-law in the market? Think others don't know? Is your daughter-in-law pretty? ”

"Ahem, ahem!" Lao Li Tou smiled proudly.

"I said who's that? You? How did you bring that girl from your house? Tired, right? It's tiring to walk alone, why do you still have a child? ”

"Little girl! I'll take you to the market to exchange for cookies, will you do it? "One of the guys stepped forward and teased the little girl who was on the shoulder of "I said who" as he went!

"You're bad silver! I don't want to change the cookies, my dad will buy them for me! ”

I said the one who said, "You tease her!" She's fine! ”

"Let's go! Come on! 'I said who's', go! I can't buy cookies when I go late. ”

"You're bad silver! My mother said that the market would be until noon! The little girl pouted.

"Let's go! Come on! 'Who did I say?' Do you hear that? South Korea called! Korea has already occupied the three cities of our Song Kingdom! ”

The guy who didn't tease the little girl shouted loudly. And then! Pretending to be on the run for his life, he ran.

"Run, everybody! Run for your life! ”

"Daddy! Father! Father! ......" Seeing this, the little girl was frightened, and gently patted her father's head to remind.

"He's bad silver, where did anyone call, and what about South Korea? He lied to you. I said the one who said to the daughter.

"It's not a lie!" I said who'? Haven't you heard? Korea has already decided to send troops to our Song State. It's true! Korea sent an envoy to negotiate with us, but the monarch refused. This is not? I heard that Korea has gathered troops and horses, and it may attack our Song State at any time. The soldiers are fast, who knows when people will call? ……”

"Is that really the case?" I said the one who asked in surprise.

"Daddy! Father! ......" The little girl's face changed again, and she kept calling her father.

"Girl! Unafraid! There is Zhuangzi! We Qiyuan people are not afraid! Girl! ”

"Hmm!" After hearing Zhuangzi's name, the little girl agreed, as if she was not afraid.

From the conversations between the people who rushed to the market, Zhuangzi could tell that the current Qiyuan, as reported by the protectors, was developing in a good direction.

But! When he heard that Korea had gathered troops and horses, Zhuangzi was still a little anxious.

After two days of unannounced visits, Zhuangzi was completely relieved that Qiyuan had reached a state of incurability and a state of people's autonomy. Every household is practicing martial arts, and joint "military exercises" are being carried out between families. He believes! Once a foreign enemy invades Qiyuan, the people of Qiyuan will quickly form a rapid reaction force, a very effective army.

But? He also established the fact that Korea was indeed going to prepare to attack the Song Kingdom. But! He still believes that it is just a momentum created by South Korea to scare and scare Song Guo and want more compensation.

So! He still decided to go to Qi Country to find his mother, Rong'er, and Sister Qing'er.
